"Funds from the Foundation do not pay for our hospital's day-to-day costs," said Cowan, "but rather for equipment to provide Memorial with the newest state-of-the-art technology in radiology. We are committed to maintaining and improving Memorial's high standards in the community and monies directed to the Foundation enable us to maintain this objective. Having diagnostic equipment like this scanner means patients no longer have to travel to Oshawa or Toronto. The close proximity of such modern, up-to-date equipment means we can check for internal damage after an accident, for example," Cowan noted. "Because of our proximity to the 401, our hospital handles more than well over the average number of emergencies than any other Ontario hospital of its size." Ultrasound machines can also be used to assess the status of a fetus in order to see if it is developing normally, find an internal problem that may exist in the spleen, liver, gall bladder, pancreas or even weaknesses in major abdominal arteries. "Finding problems quickly and safely will definitely benefit the patient," Cowan emphasized.

The Checkers team surprised surprised Hutton with two quick goals in the opening shift. The Hutton Transport team should be commended for the gritty play that followed. Not disheartened disheartened by the two quick goals, they faced the task at hand and not only held Checkers at bay for the remainder remainder of the first period but tied the score 2 - 2. Early in the second period, this evenly matched contest fell apart. Suddenly with no apparent reason, Hutton's vigorous checking and hard skating disappeared and Checkers were allowed to skate and pass almost at will. Checkers scored seven unanswered unanswered goals in the last nine shifts of the game. On Saturday, Jan. 21, Checkers faced Prout's Raiders in game five of their schedule. Having prepared themselves mentally in the dressing room, Checkers were in high spirits for the start of the game. At the drop of the puck they opened up quickly and by the end of the first shift held a 1 - 0 lead. Prout's Raiders were now warmed up and good end to end hockey developed with several good scoring chances but excellent goaltending in both nets. The fourth shift thrilled the fans with three goals in less than three minutes, two for Checkers and one for Prouts. The first period ended with Checkers leading 3 -1, During the lull as the teams switched ends, Prout's allowed allowed themselves to relax slightly resulting in the second period being similar to the first. Again Checkers bolted quickly and scored in the first shift. Prouts now picked up the pace and good end to end hockey resulted. As in the first period, the next goal came in the fourth shift, but this time for Prouts and the second period ended with Checkers leading 4 -2. Having been stung twice, Prout's were now ready for the start of the third period. From the starting faceoff they checked vigorously and scored in the second shift to narrow the gap to 4 - 3. The Prout's team now overflowed with well deserved confidence and high spirit. However, their hopes were set back moments later when Checkers scored and the fate of the game was sealed the following shift as Checkers scored a sixth goal. With the score remaining 6 - 3 in favour of Checkers the last two shifts were played with undying vigor. Both teams can be proud of their effort. Ultrasound Equipment at Hospital T.D.
